Prosecutors Dropping Child Porn Charges After Software Tools Are Questioned — ProPublica
Defence lawyers have been asking the Prosecution to produce the code for the software, used against their clients, which is alleged to have tracked porn to an IP address. For various legal reasons, the code is not being produced thus bringing in reasonable doubt. Does it work properly or not is the question. If it cannot be checked and/or tested, can we be sure that it works.
So are computers now finished in law enforcement and or investigations.??
Every Defence lawyer can now ask, in discovery, for all programs and codes used. to test them for glitches and plain errors. They can ask..........was the program(s) regularly tested, by whom, when? Or does the operator just switch on and play!! They can ask for programs/code used from day 1 until now. Any faults found makes programs suspect and DOUBTful!!!
Programs such as STINGRAY are never allowed to be seen for national paranoia reasons. Why? Don't they work properly?? Who are the operators/coders of the systems? Civilians, perhaps, with no law enforcement training?? Are they members of pro/anti, gun, abortion, Muslims Hindus, Christianity groups?
Bak to crayon and paper folks, if these programs and codes rot produced.
